On a lighter note, I took my inspiration from 1969 film "The Italian Job" fused with a little Monty Python as a bonus!

🎶[Bruce's Philosophers Song (Monty Python)] 🎶
Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table
David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as sloshed as Schlegel
There's nothing Nietzche couldn't teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist
Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed
John Stuart Mill, of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill
Plato, they say, could stick it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his dram
And René Descartes was a drunken fart
"I drink, therefore I am"
Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed
A lovely little thinker
But a bugger when he's pissed

Philosophers and religious fanatics argue as to when the Soul enters the Body --- is it conception, sometime during the growth, or when you're born?
And I think we're witnessing that happening right here and now.
All I know is that I wouldn't mind being reincarnated as a high-flying, soaring Hawk.
Actually, the most amazing part of this image is there are now 3 Hawks soaring together, after years of watching the pair it's nice to see a new juvenile tagging along.....
morning light streamed through the window, sharp and golden, carving shapes in the air. two tables away, a man sat still, the lines on his face deep as stories untold. i asked if i could take his portrait. he chuckled, waved me off. "i’m not a good-looking man," he said. nonsense, i told him. the light wasn’t interested in good looks. it loved character, and he had plenty of it. he let me shoot, the glow falling across his weathered features like a map of a life lived. when i showed him the raw frame on my phone, his lips curled into a smile, faint but real. "not bad," he said. he was right—it wasn’t bad. it was honest.

Every year insane people travel to the end of the earth to battle with winds up to 120 km/h to photograph the majestic mountains of Patagonia. In some ways I found this to be one of the most challenging places to shoot in my life, but fortunately I gave myself plenty of time to connect with this place, explore, be patient, and capture moments. I've found inspiration through many of the greats of our time, and part of me wondered prior to going on this trip, what I could possibly add. The greats of our time travel here regularly, and now I know why.
This area is both vast, and small. I felt like I could explore it for months, maybe even years, and still not know all it's secrets, but I also felt like I could cover most of the ground in a day (and did so regularly), if I knew exactly where I wanted to be. It's a very accessible place, in one of the most remote parts of the world. I think this is the primary reason this place is so popular. Anyone flying into the area can see how vast and remote the Andes mountains are. There are unexplored places deep in the southwest of Chile & Argentina that have yet to be put on the map. For now, I was content to explore Fitz Roy, and Torres Del Paine.
This photograph required deep exploration, and special permits. It also required multiple trips up nearly 1000 meters of back country climbing, first to scout the location, then to come back under better conditions. I've never seen a shot from here before, perhaps because it requires sketchy river crossings, backcountry travel, expert navigation, night hiking, steep grades, traveling through thick woods, and perfect conditions. This shot was taken at sunset, and is a single shot taken at a fairly rapid shutter speed to capture the circling condor above. I had to stretch/clone out part of a hill to fix the overall composition, and it didn't come out perfect as it's a somewhat rapid edit. Exgif: f/8, iso64, 15mm, 1/160, nikon d850

Anthony Ashley-Cooper, 3rd Earl of Shaftesbury, built a folly structure on the Shaftesbury Estate, known as the Philosopher's Tower. This folly sits in a field, clearly visible from the B3078 just south of Cranborne. It is thought that he did a lot of his philosophising in this tower, and from this suggestion it has become known as the Philosopher's Tower.
Traditionally known as the Bravi, (heavies) referring to Francesco Querini’s infamous guards, the seven marble busts were attributed to Orazio Marinali. Recent critics now believe the busts to be the work of Michele Fabris known as L’Ongaro, one of the most important sculptors the Veneto in the second half of the seventeenth century. New identifications for the individual busts have also been proposed: philosophers, a young pupil and a pair of saints, Saint John the Baptist and Saint John the Evangelist.Although there is no extant documentation for the commissioning of the busts we can connect them to Girolamo and Polo Querini and the Accademia dei Paragonisti, opened in 1684 in the Santa Maria Formosa palace and where, according to eighteenth century sources “le più nobili questioni erudite” [most noble and learned issues] were discussed.

Early morning in Letaba camp (Kruger Park - South Africa), I was waiting for the sunrise when this Vervet monkey joined me and enjoyed the first sunrays of the day.
Two philosophers meet and discuss on the streets of Porto Alegre, Brazil.

Here is the philosopher of my blue bird collection. He is looking into the distance and thinking – probably about food.
Now that is a wise and learned bird.
I took this picture at Colorado State University during a major snow storm in 2013. I have more pictures like this in my timeline.

I lead no party; I follow no leader. I have given the best part of my life to careful study of Islam, its law and polity, its culture, its history and its literature.

Le célèbre philosophe Jean-Jacques Rousseau a écrit dans ses Rêveries d'un promeneur solitaire: "De toutes les habitations où j'ai demeuré (et j'en ai eu de charmantes), aucune ne m'a rendu si véritablement heureux et ne m'a laissé de si tendres regrets que l'île de St-Pierre au milieu du lac de Bienne". Sa résidence d'antan, un ancien prieuré, est devenue aujourd'hui un hôtel-restaurant réputé.
